The Auditor General of Alberta has selected and standardized on Application Security Inc.’s AppDetectivePro for their database audits—providing the Auditor general an automated audit and reporting functionality to evaluate their governmental databases.

Said the Auditor General of Alberta, “It is critical that we are able to efficiently evaluate whether government databases have effective security and access controls to protect the sensitive data hosted and processed by them,” and “after evaluating six vendors, we selected AppDetectivePro because of its market leadership, agentless software architecture, vulnerability knowledgebase, comprehensive multi-platform coverage, and its User Rights Review capabilities.”
